PFPX hotfix 1.28.9c

[FlightSimSoft.com 257]

Hello,

 

The following hotfix solves several issues, especially

- wind optimize issue

- crash issues on start up

- inflght button

- alternate airport for Vatsim flight plan

- ...

 

We decided to release a hotfix to be sure that solved issues are verified.

 

Note: this is not a full installer, but a replacement of the original PFPX.exe file. Unzip the file and place it into the following directory:

c:\aerosoft\Professional Flight Planner X\

 

Important: PFPX requires 'Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015 x86'.

 

Best regards,

Judith&Christian

Hi!

I use PFPX on a regular basis and starting today it crashes randomly. At some points it is reproducible, e.g. using the route editor and clicking on find...

Clicking on “Add flight” gives me the usual window, but without the icon menu, thus I can't start a new flight.

I used version 1.28. Reinstallation didn't make it better. The hotfix didn't make it any better.

Thanks

Oliver

So you are saying that the problem showed up first after installing the hotifx 1.28.9c the first time? 

And reinstalling the previous release version didn't fixed it again?

Is that correct?

[Calvin777 2]

Sorry for not being clear.

 

No the problem "suddenly" appeared without changing anything regards the PFPX installation.

 

Of course, I installed windows updates, new PMDG updates.... So, something must have caused it.

 

Reinstalling version 1.28 or installing the hotfix was just an attempt to solve the issue.

I just checked what I've installed in the last days. What I updated was the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015 x86. Now version 14.0.24123 is installed.

 

Could this be the root cause?

 

 

[Calvin777 2]

ok - reinstalled the redist and now pfpx works again!

[Tom A320 4432]

Glad to read that! But please, next time do not just post your problem into the nearest open topic even if it's clearly not related, but open your own topic

Hi

 

Excuse me, I understand that I have to install this new patch over ''1.28 version'', is it right?

 

Thanks

 

regards

Yes. It replaces the existing pfpx.exe file. It is good practice to backup the existing file before applying the hotfix.

@Tom A320

Ok, thanks

Or you could just set the Prepar3D directory to where P3D v4 files are

And as Judith stated in her post, this is just a hotfix to get the existing bugs fixed and verified from the field. A new version with also new features will follow later.

I noticed that "Ignore route charges" option has been added in route construction dialog. This feature is not documented, could you explain it's usage? It's great to see such enhancements.

 

Also, is it possible to define runways for custom airfields (i.e. it is possible to define properties of custom airfields - entry/exit points, etc, but not actual rwys)?

Froze for me on random payload I had loaded everything but the payload, created the plan and then pressed "random" and the screen froze.

[WayneGeorge 6]

It's really great to see you guys @FlightSimSoft.com continuing to add new features and updates. Is it possible you could perhaps add airport ground radar so for example make it so we can see what taxiway we are on and it shows the plane live on the ground? So like a taxiway map for instance!  

 

Thanks!

[EGSC9 5]

From my understanding PFPX was never intended to be used in-flight (apart from actual printed OFPs), this is flight planning tool and there are still a lot of flight planning features to be added/refined.

Please use the support ticket system at: www.flightsimsoft.com/support for any feature requests as it is very time consuming to work out your requests from all topics here...

Pleased provide a screenshot of the planing page, fromLogin which all details are visible you have selected prior to hitting them payload button.

Tom,

Why didn't PFPX notice this fix?

Grz.

Paul

[Tom A320 4432]

Paul,

 

what exactly is your question? This hotfix was announced here in this topic and is used by FlightSimSoft to validate a few bugfixes. Once they are validated FlightSimSoft will release a complete new version, as they wrote in the first post of this topic.

 

EDIT: Sorry, now I got your question. The build in update check only notifies about new version, not about hotfixes. Once FlightSimSoft will release a new version (i.e. something that comes with it's own installer and not just a file to be replaced manually) you will get a notification within PFPX.

Tom,

We're still missing the WIND/TURB option while printing the flight plan, I wonder why you guys removed such a great feature as it was a nice to have.

I checked the flight plan thinking maybe the TURB now included as numbers but was disappointed too, please bring this option back!
